“Handling the Word” course – Several people have expressed an interest in attending a “Handling the Word” course. This course is designed to help church members who wish to learn how to prepare and deliver a Bible talk, whether it is for a Youth Group, a PW meeting, a men’s breakfast, or a church service. There is no requirement to have any experience of giving talks, although the course would benefit those who already have such experience. To run the course in Derry and Donegal Presbytery we need at least 12 people, and when we have that number or more expressing an interest, then we will make arrangements for the course which will suit as many as possible of those who want to come. The course involves 6 sessions and these can either be held on six evenings or on two Saturdays. The course costs £20 for each participant. If you may be interested please speak to Rev Stewart Glendinning.
